Chapter 37 Pay Attention to Safety
The voyage from the star domain near Xianzhou "Luofu" to Peng claude was originally planned to take only 12 system hours.
However, halfway through, they passed a branch spaceport of Interstellar Peace Corporation located on a desolate satellite.
Bai Heng contacted the staff of the branch and asked them to prepare some local specialties of the star domain as gifts for Ruan · Mei.
But what he didn't expect was that his P40 level in the Interstellar Peace Corporation put quite a lot of pressure on the management of the branch.
Although it was only a temporary supply, the airport management prepared a welcoming banquet for him and even had staff lining up to welcome him.
After Bai Heng spent some time explaining his intentions, a high-level leader of the branch with a rank of P34 dismissed the welcoming team and led Bai Heng to the branch's trade material transfer point.
Food like pastries would lose much of their flavor if not freshly baked.
Fortunately, the company branch in this star domain recruited top pastry chefs from various planets. In just a while, various pastries with the characteristics of this star domain were freshly baked, and Bai Heng selected a few packages to take onto the starship.
Because of this small incident, Bai Heng's arrival at Peng claude was slightly delayed.
.....
Peng claude , 15:34 pm.
The starship parking lot, which was like written with symbols and codes, successfully recorded the data of Bai Heng's starship.
In recent days, there have been no shortage of ships visiting this hacker star.
Most of them came to observe the academic exchange meeting to be held in Peng claude tomorrow.
And the venue of the academic exchange meeting is exactly a neon city named after the entire planet - Peng claude
Bai Heng wasn't clear about the scale of this academic exchange meeting, but just from the fact that Ruan · Mei, a member of the Genius Club, was invited to attend, one could also infer something.
At least, the value of this academic exchange meeting is not a fool's play in the eyes of such geniuses.
Out of the airport, Bai Heng hailed a taxi on the roadside. Xiao Si was in charge of carrying the large and small packages of pastries and followed him into the car.
Among them, there were both those bought when leaving Xianzhou and local specialties given by the branch of the Interstellar Peace Corporation.
When they arrived on this planet, they had actually noticed the rain clouds brewing in the atmosphere. By the time the taxi they were riding reached the viaduct, raindrops just fell along the towering buildings, pattering and cleaning the city.
Bai Heng rested one hand on the side of his face and observed Peng claude outside the car window.
This was his first visit to Peng claude
But vaguely, he felt very familiar with this city, as if... he had once lived in this city before.
Enveloped by the rain and fog, the sky, which should have been gray, was still constantly beating and flickering under the brilliant neon lights. It seemed that all the colors had turned into data streams and integrated into the city itself.
No wonder the information shows that Peng claude is a planet where the boundary between day and night has long been blurred.
Through the transparent car window left with a slit, Bai Heng felt the cold and damp air and the atmosphere of this city.
In this giant city composed of the data network and neon lights, the hard skyline vanished in the lights. The high-rise buildings in the business district looked like square cages woven with light from a distance. There was a wide lake adjacent to this viaduct in the distance.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. The traffic on the viaduct was surging, and the car lights merged into a stream of light. And they were like a firefly trapped in this curved, slender viaduct, only able to rush forward vigorously and look for an exit.
Bai Heng tasted the atmosphere of this planet or this city itself - loneliness.
In Bai Heng's eyes, Peng claude seemed like a lost forest.
The highly prosperous data network has instead blocked communication between people. This is a common topic on Bai Heng's home planet.
And Peng claude, this planet gathering the world's best hackers, might be the final state of this problem evolving.
After coming down from the viaduct, the taxi drove directly to the Bolorenz Hotel in the center of Peng claude
Including Ruan · Mei, scholars and celebrities from across star domains were all arranged in this hotel.
However, tomorrow's academic exchange meeting in Peng claude will be held online in the interstellar internet.
Invitees actually don't necessarily need to come to Peng claude in person.
Therefore, Bai Heng infer that apart from this academic exchange meeting, they might have other purposes for coming here.
One system hour later.
Bai Heng arrived downstairs of the hotel named Bolorenz.
Xiao Si held an umbrella for Bai Heng with his left hand and carried several packages of pastries with his right hand. Looking up at the towering hotel in front of him, he exclaimed:
"This hotel is so huge, Brother Bai. I don't think I've seen such a tall hotel when I accompanied you to Pielpointe last time."
"That's because you haven't seen much. Among the shareholders in the company's board of directors in Pielpointe, one of them, in order to please his daughter, specially bought an uninhabited planet and built the most magnificent building complex in the entire universe on it. They even replicated a sky tower from a fairy tale one-to-one. If that tower hadn't collapsed, it would probably be the tallest building now." While casually giving this information, Bai Heng patted him on the shoulder, indicating that he shouldn't stand there stunned.
"Oh oh." Xiao Si nodded blankly and took a step forward, still muttering: "There's such a profligate rich guy."
The two entered the main hall of this hotel. Bai Heng showed the electronic room card given by Ruan · Mei with his mobile phone and checked in at the hotel front desk.
After querying and verifying Bai Heng's identity at the hotel front desk, a waiter specifically came forward and led him to take the elevator to the 67th floor where Ruan · Mei was.
After getting out of the elevator, Bai Heng said to the waiter:
"No need to escort."
"Yes, sir." The waiter bowed respectfully and then stood elegantly in the elevator.
It wasn't until Bai Heng and Xiao Si walked a certain distance away from the elevator that the elevator door closed slowly.
The corridor of the Bolorenz Hotel was extremely spacious, enough for four waiters to push the dining carts side by side.
Bai Heng looked at the electronic room card in his hand and walked forward for a hundred meters.
Finally, he found the room where Ruan · Mei was.
"Give me the pastries." Bai Heng said to Xiao Si on the side:
"Oh, okay."
Xiao Si handed the several packages of still warm pastries to Bai Heng and touched his head, saying:
"Then, Brother Bai, I'll go down first and find a hotel outside while it's still early."
"Don't rush. Say hello to your sister-in-law first." Bai Heng rang the doorbell and said:
"Sister-in-law?" Bai Heng didn't explain the reason for coming to Peng claude to Xiao Si, so he still thought that Bai Heng came to Peng claude this time for official business:
"Brother Bai, is... the one from the 'Heita' Space Station last time?"
"Yes."
After the doorbell rang three times.
Footsteps approaching came from inside the room.
Immediately after, the door was opened, and a beautiful figure appeared in front of Bai Heng.
Because it was early spring in Peng claude and the coldness of winter hadn't dissipated yet. It rained today, so Ruan · Mei was wearing a woolen snow jacket.
But perhaps because as a researcher in the field of life, she could overcome the cold in other ways long ago. This woolen snow jacket adopted Off Shoulder hollow design, revealing her snow-white and delicate skin. Although the lower body was also covered by the long snow jacket, a section of her fair calf was still exposed, giving off a rather charming and lovely feeling.
She raised her head and looked at Bai Heng with a pair of gentle Light green eyes and said softly:
"You're here."
"Well, I bought some things on the way, so it was delayed for some time." Bai Heng lifted the several packages of pastries in his hand and then pointed to Xiao Si beside him and introduced:
"This is my subordinate, the ace starship pilot of the Astronomical Society."
The young man with red hair on the side grinned and called out as Bai Heng said:
"Sister-in-law, hello!"
"Sister-in-law?" Ruan · Mei looked at the red-haired teenager, but only for a moment, she default this title and said: "Hello, I'm Ruan · Mei. May I ask what your name is."
Xiao Si touched his head and said with a smile:
"Sister-in-law, just call me Xiao Si. Since I've already greeted you, then I'll leave first and not disturb you and Brother Bai."
After saying that, Xiao Si also greeted Bai Heng and didn't disturb the two-person world of Bai Heng and Ruan · Mei.
"Pay attention to safety." Bai Heng reminded:
"OK, Brother Bai, you also pay attention to safety." Xiao Si turned his head while answering:
"What safety do I need to pay attention to... damn...." Bai Heng was suddenly a little speechless.
But after he left, Bai Heng had nothing to avoid. He reached out and gently poked Ruan · Mei's exposed snow shoulder with his finger and asked:
"Aren't you cold?"
Ruan · Mei didn't seem to mind this intimate gesture and shook her head, saying:
"No. This dress was prepared for me by Qing Tu before coming. What do you think?"
"It's very suitable. If it's convenient, I hope to have a couple's version. We can wear it out together."
After hearing Bai Heng's words, a gentle smile appeared on Ruan · Mei's cold face and she said:
"Well, I'll contact Qing Tu when I get back. But before that, I need to do a routine physical examination for you first."
